This has been driving huge amounts of commenting traffic to Cordite, so go have a look. The slowly maturing result is magnificent, too.
Remember book trailers? and how awful they were? Apparently they are improving. (It looks like Sloane Crosley, of eating cake fame, put a lot of work into hers too.) Via Boldtype.
People are never satisfied, are they?
Here is a fine swag of Queensland writers, via the Empty Pages blog at the Queensland Writers' Centre.
Posted this mainly because I just like the name of the feature (and our shed is in need of a Howards Storage World makeover). I like the Cloffice, too, mainly because I have half a room...and it's a real mess right now.
This book has a foxy cover, as Kath might say - but even more impressive is its author's completely silly rider.
This is such an impressive use of technology. Flick on the slide show and enjoy your own West Wing.
Here's another amazing local cover, coming in October to a shop near you.
And finally, why did I not know about this till I got an OzBallet newsletter? It's already been going for a month: check out David McAllister's post on the So You Think You Can Dance final (and note he was not given a seat in the house on the night, tssskk.)

Hey GMT,
thanx for the link to Haikunaut Island - I am still a little bit stunned that we have received over 1100 comments (and it ain't over yet). It's just come out of nowhere.
I can haz impressed by new site design btw.
Kfx.
